Developing reliable high voltage transistors requires consistent manufacturing of critical architectural parameters within the device over time and with various design configurations. Structural parameters that directly affect reliability are especially crucial to delivering robust parts to the market place. In this paper it is shown that the nwell and pwell photo critical dimension (CD)'s for a 25 V lateral field n-type transistor (LFNDMOS), are significant control parameters for minimizing hot-carrier degradation and thus, improving the reliability. Variations in manufacturing photo CD's, such as, the edge proximity of the nwell (used as the extended drain) and the pwell (used as the body) to the bird's beak (BB) was found to directly effect interface trap formation and hot-carrier degradation. By understanding these critical structural parameters a more reliable manufacturing process can be developed
开发可靠的高压晶体管需要随着时间的推移和各种设计配置在器件内一致地制造关键结构参数。直接影响可靠性的结构参数对于向市场交付坚固的部件尤为重要。本文证明了25 V横向场n型晶体管(LFNDMOS)的nwell和pwell光临界尺寸(CD)是最小化热载流子退化从而提高可靠性的重要控制参数。在制造照片CD的过程中,如nwell(用作延伸漏孔)和pwell(用作机身)与鸟喙(BB)的边缘接近程度的变化,直接影响了界面陷阱的形成和热载子的降解。通过了解这些关键的结构参数,可以开发出更可靠的制造工艺

In this study, the delay-dependent negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) was performed and a power law relationship between the lifetime and the delay time was found. The AC lifetimes under dynamic stress as a function of duty cycle and frequency were also investigated. It was observed that the time-to-failure (TTF) has an exponential dependence on duty ratio and a power law dependency on frequency. An accurate AC model incorporated with duty ratio and frequency is proposed. The mechanisms due to the effect of recovery are discussed

Low voltages in various stress modes and temperatures were applied on two kinds of pMOSFETs to investigate the hot-carrier (HC) induced degradation. Contrary to conventional concepts, this investigation demonstrates that the worst conditions for pMOSFET HC reliability involves CHC mode and at high temperature. The severity of degradation of pMOSFETs has become comparable to their nMOSFET counterparts. A probable damage mechanism is suggested to involve the generation of interface states by the integration of HC and negative biased temperature effect (NBTI). A new empirical lifetime model is proposed in terms of applied voltages and temperatures

The Correlation of Interface Defect Density and Power-Law Exponent Factor on Ultra-thin Gate Dielectric Reliability 界面缺陷密度与幂律指数因子对超薄栅极介质可靠性的影响
Pub Date : 2006-10-01 DOI: 10.1109/IRWS.2006.305240

Interface defect density on 90 nm PFET ultra-thin gate dielectric is checked by using a near flat band SILC in this work. Although power-law model has been successfully adopted to explain the gate oxide breakdown phenomenon below 2.0nm in industry field (Wu et al., 2000), (Ohgata et al., 2005), (Naoyoshi et al., 2003) and (Mariko et al., 2001), a correlation between power-law model with interface defect density has been made first time in this investigation. Critical defect density (NBD) shows strong correlation with power-law exponent factor due to SILC leakage increasing ratio (dJ/J0) dominate dielectric breakdown on our decouple plasma nitridation (DPN) power splits. A preliminary model is proposed to explain the nitridation-induced oxide reliability degradation mechanism. Since larger concentration of Nitrogen incorporation will cause excess interface states, those energy levels may reduce proton tunneling barrier in anode hydrogen release (AHR) behavior, thus further enhance AHR effect to degrade oxide breakdown strength
本文采用近平带硅原子阱检测了90 nm pet超薄栅极介质上的界面缺陷密度。虽然幂律模型已经在工业领域成功地解释了2.0nm以下栅极氧化物击穿现象(Wu et al., 2000)、(Ohgata et al., 2005)、(Naoyoshi et al., 2003)和(Mariko et al., 2001),但本研究首次将幂律模型与界面缺陷密度联系起来。临界缺陷密度(NBD)与幂律指数因子有很强的相关性,因为硅烷泄漏增加比(dJ/J0)在去耦等离子体氮化(DPN)功率分裂中占主导地位。提出了一个初步的模型来解释氮化引起的氧化物可靠性退化机制。较大的氮掺入浓度会产生过量的界面态,这些能级可能会降低阳极氢释放(AHR)行为中的质子隧穿势垒,从而进一步增强AHR效应,降低氧化物击穿强度

The NBTI recovery phenomenon leads to a fast reduction of the stress induced electrical device parameter degradation after end of stress. Delay times between device-stress and -characterization within NBTI-experiments affect the measurement values of degradation. This work discusses the impact of these delays on lifetime prediction for technology qualifications. For this reason we investigate delay times from 1mus up to 60s and stress times from 100ms up to 250000s. A correlation between stress time, delay time induced recovery and error in predicted lifetime is elaborated for the first time. Furthermore we give simple guidelines for measurement requirements and essential stress times for accurate lifetime evaluations

The dependences of device structures and layout parameters on ESD robustness in a 40-V CMOS process have been investigated in silicon chips. From the experimental results, the high-voltage (HV) MOSFETs without drift implant in the drain region have better TLP-measured It2 and ESD robustness than those with drift implant in the drain region. Furthermore, the It2 and ESD level of HV MOSFETs can be increased as the layout spacing from the drain diffusion to polygate is increased

Practical considerations for Wafer-Level Electromigration Monitoring in high volume production 大批量生产中晶圆级电迁移监测的实际考虑

Reliability monitoring is an important part of process control in high volume production. For the back end of line (BEOL), a wafer-level electromigration (WL-EM) test is usually the method of choice to get a good indication of process variation (Schuster, 2001). In this work we present practical normalization procedures to ensure an appropriate wafer to wafer comparison which is independent of variation in cross-sectional area as well as of the initial resistance spread. The measurements have been performed on a commercially available 300mm multi-side probe station, using custom-made software to implement the current ramp and resistance measurement. The test conditions were achieved through Joule heating; the test structures used were 800mum long single lines (no vias) in metal 1 to metal 3, varying in width from 0.14mum to 10mum. After several normalization steps described in this paper we found a strong activation energy dependence on line width. This dependence was linked to issues in temperature investigation using a constant TCR value. Additionally we found a simple way to estimate the current density exponent by optimizing the Arrhenius relation. Overall a comprehensive guideline for constant current WL-EM is presented
可靠性监控是大批量生产过程控制的重要组成部分。对于生产线后端(BEOL),晶圆级电迁移(WL-EM)测试通常是获得工艺变化良好指示的选择方法(Schuster, 2001)。在这项工作中,我们提出了实用的归一化程序,以确保适当的晶圆之间的比较,这是独立于横截面积的变化以及初始电阻扩散。测量是在市售的300mm多面探头站上进行的,使用定制的软件来实现电流斜坡和电阻测量。试验条件通过焦耳加热实现;所使用的测试结构是金属1到金属3的800微米长的单线(没有过孔),宽度从0.14微米到10微米不等。经过本文描述的几个归一化步骤,我们发现活化能与线宽有很强的依赖性。这种依赖性与使用恒定TCR值进行温度调查的问题有关。此外,通过优化Arrhenius关系,我们找到了一种简单的方法来估计电流密度指数。总的来说,提出了一种综合的恒流WL-EM准则

The reliability characteristics of polysilicon-oxide-nitride-oxide -silicon (SONOS) devices with different thin tunnel oxides are studied. The tunnel oxynitride growth in a pure N2O ambient with high temperature has better performance than in a dry oxidation with N2 annealing treatment including leakage current, programming speed, read disturb and retention. Besides, the surface roughness and interface states between tunnel oxide and Si substrate are also observed by atomic force microscope (AFM) technique and charge-pumping method to evaluate interfacial nitrogen incorporation. The results show that the reliability of data retention obtained a significant improvement while maintaining good programming/erase performance and can provide a straightforward way of reliability improvement for future flash memory application

Besides, the surface roughness and interface states between tunnel oxide and Si substrate are also observed by atomic force microscope (AFM) technique and charge-pumping method to evaluate interfacial nitrogen incorporation. The results show that the reliability of data retention obtained a significant improvement while maintaining good programming/erase performance and can provide a straightforward way of reliability improvement for future flash memory application","PeriodicalId":199223,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE International Integrated Reliability Workshop Final Report","volume":"513 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131704515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
